EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we are transported back to the era of World War Two, specifically D-Day in 1944. Martin Davison, a dedicated employee at Bristol Street Motors garage, can be seen serving up precious fuel during a special promotion offer. The image captures the essence of wartime rationing and scarcity as petrol was a highly sought-after commodity. The photograph showcases an elderly gentleman with years of experience etched on his face, symbolizing resilience and determination amidst the chaos of war. His weathered hands carefully pour out D-Day 1ld and three farthings petrol into an awaiting vintage car. This nostalgic scene takes us back to a time when every drop counted and resources were scarce. The setting is reminiscent of an old-fashioned petrol station from the 1990s; however, it serves as a reminder that this was not just any ordinary day but one that marked history forever - D-Day. The significance of this event is palpable in the air as people gathered around to witness this unique promotion offer. Stuart Outterside's masterful capture transports us back to a pivotal moment in our world's history - World War Two. It reminds us of the sacrifices made by individuals like Martin Davison who played their part in supporting their country during times of adversity. This photograph encapsulates both nostalgia for simpler times and gratitude for those who served selflessly during war-torn years.
